Hi all,

On my FGT, I activate message alert when admin login/logout.

Since I update FAZ to 6.0.0, I receive several time a day theses messages for each firewall.

Do you have same behaviour ?

    I do have exactly the same behaviour.

    Any explanations?

    If you have security fabric enabled on the FortiGate, then FortiAnalyzer will try to login to the FortiGate to gather security fabric statistics & topology information.

     

    For this to work properly you must setup a security fabric group in FortiAnalyzer which includes proper admin credentials in order for FortiAnalyzer to log into the FortiGate.

    thanks for this explanation.

    I follow this guide and it's working fine with only read access on system config.

    But I still have a lot false positive : if I set Upload option to "reatime" :

    I think Fortinet can find another way to get this working without this spam engine
